TRIBUTE TO ElrtVIJf WIIITTEMORE.
Written for The Tribune.
.. The sudden death of Edwin Whlttemora
-Mas- been a severe shock to this com
munity. Leaving; home as he did a few
short weeks ago In all the strength and
vigor of younsr manhood, one can hardly
realize that he has returned to us only
It) the body, the spirit having winged Its
flight. There wus no young man In this
city more respected or that had a larger
circle of friends than he; bright, genial,
nd gifted with many talents of exem
plary character and habits, he had the
love and regard of all.
Ed. Whlttemore left his borne for Lynn,
Mass., three months ago to take a humble
pod Hon In the large electrical establish
ment of Houston ft West, and during his
short service with them he was three
times advanced until at the time of his
death he was occupying the position of
foreman In the Inspecting department.
The superintendent, under whose charge
he was, speaks of him as being one of the
most careful, trustworthy and efficient
young men ever In his employ, and had
prophesied for htm a brilliant future at
the head of his chosen profession.
At home he whs active In church and
Sunday school work, and this work he
took up In Lynn with such enthusiasm
' and zeal that In the few short weeks he
lived among them, he gathered about him
a large circle of Influential friends, as
was attested by the many declarations of
sorrow publicly expressed by the different
organisations of which he had become an
active memeber.
That he was able to so Indelibly stamo
. fits character upon a community In which
his stay was of such short duration shows
well the manner of man he was and make
our grief even more poignant as we realize
more fully our loss.
. Scranton may well be proud of the
young representative she sent out to win
his way In the battle of life, and she must
needs mourn deeply the loss of one who,
had he been spared, would undoubtedly
have laid many laurels at her feet. One
Of our leading; citizens, speaking yester
day of his career, said: "Measuring Ufa
by successes, rather than years, the life
of Edwin Whlttemore was well rounded
out." The bereaved family have the sym
pathy of all, but the loss Is not theirs
alone; his friends were legion, and the
burden of this sorrow rests upon many.
His life should be an 1nnlrstlon tn every
young man, a Ufa worthy of emulation.

CHRIST'S JEW OF LIFE
Vcs the Sermon Topic of Kcv. Dr. Xi.
H. l'carcc in Elm Park Church.
U01XG GOOD INTO OTHERS
Is a Way of Joy and Comfort-A Selfish
Man Deserves Contempt-Wealth
and Power Ouly a
Superstructure.
Th rs.tlns capacity of matmlflclent
Elm (Park ctoUTea was taxed to its ut
nioft late nlsrh't by an audience that
'licard tihe pawnor, 'itev. W. H. Pearce,
preach on "Chivst's View of L&e." The
toi'nion was an appeal for correct liv
ing aivi was lim Koraans, xv, 5: "-According
to Jisus Christ." Ir. Pearce
laid:
There neither aj nor Is anything with
out a divine purpose. The celestial mark,
the divine hiinu und un Intelligent pur
pose are stamped everywhere. Bo man Is
of Infinite desitn; he Is one of God's grand
est and noblest works, yet la capable of
groat wretchedness In tne face of being
designed for a good and beneficent pur
pose. How did Christ view life? Hp viewed It
as ho taught it that the abundance of
temporality Is not the best ambition, that
it la not a good ambition. Christ was of
fered by Satun on the mount a world of
empires and sceptres, but rather than bar
ter his soul for temporal abundance, he
said he preferred going back into the
wilderness and the sufferings that come
of privation. So, by a grand example we
are shown that wealth, power and pleas
ure arc not the end.
Not a word should be uttered to dis
courage anyone In a legitimate worldly
desire to re.rrh wealth and position If the
desire Is not for self aggrandizement. He
clean and manly to the very sockets of
your soul and your search for worldly
success will end nobly. In literature, in
law. In medicine there Is nothing which
makes coveteousness a wrong If the de
sire is rightly bent. Gird yourself and
win the most beautiful way in your pro
fession or calling; there exists no sym
pathy for a groveller. In your success you
will need lots of energy and a certain
amount of righteous combativencss, but
above all la the fear of God; without It
any success will be an empty shell. We
protest against any accomplishment that
Is the end of Ufa
Should lla Subordinate to It.elf.
The servant of the soul should never
come Into possession of the soul, for,
groat as It Is, it should always be sub
ordinate to Itself and not contlned within
a circle of temporality. With the splen
did life before you don't adopt the pur
pose of so many that the object of life Is
to eat, live and to gather a pile of dust
that will be scattered like so much chaff.
No, we should rise above temporalities
and let wealth and power be only tho su
perstructure of our spiritual life.
'According to Jesus Christ' the object
of this life Is not self-happiness It Is self
sacrifice. You show me tho man who
cares only for himself and I will show
you the most contemptible and shrivelled
wretch that creeps on God's footstool:
"He shall be pushed into tho crave and
covered up with the spurnlngs und male
dictions of tho good." You show me the
generous spirited man, and I will show
you a kingly man who will bo welcomed
at the gate with a shout of Joy and an
anthem of victory. In this connection
look about you; because you cannot take
all a neighbor's burdens on your own
shoulders don't think you cannot take
some of them. If It's a .business mnn in
financial difficulty, If it's a friend, If It's
a neighbor, If It's a stranger. If It's one
whose soul Is one made by the same God
who mnde yours, and we are all of com
mon heritage go to such an one and aid
him In such a way that he will bo given
a soft pillow of comfort and of hope.
Just touch a blighted life outside of your
own circle. Then In that day when, for
you all thrones shall crumble and when
all crowns shall lose their glitter, you
can go Into that celestial assemblage with
your name woven through and through
with Joy and reward. Oh, what comfort
comes with having done good for someone
besides self.
Only by Faith In Jesus Christ.
Reliance on Jesus Christ Is good for
weary souls, for no matter If a man ac
quire a palace, political power, famo or
wealth, the tears on hia tired face can
often be wiped away only by faith In
Jesus Christ.
"According to Jesus Christ" life Is not
limited, then why not think seriously of
what has been brought to your notice.
This pulpit here would not be very valu
able If It was not practical. Then let this
question of tonight be practical to you.
How Is It with you? Are we using the
best means at our command for living, or
are we living contrary to the precept of
Christ, contrary to human and divine na
ture ard contrary, If you like, to the
spiritual desire of ourselves? This Is a
thought which we ought to take seriously
Into our minds tonight, for we ought to bo
ready for the Inst moment; like tho bride
of the far east, we know not when tho
bridegroom will come. She bedecks and
prepares herself nfter such fashion ar she
thinks will bo most pleasing to him. How
will we bo prenared for the coming of the
bridegroom? Let us put to sleep some
things that rage In us and lot us awaken
some things that sleep.
QUICK WORK THIS.

SECOND COMMANDMENT.
That Was the SurJcet of Rev. Dr. Me
l.cod's Dlsaonrse Lost Night.
Rev. James McLeod delivered the
second sermon Of the series on the ten
commanr' enta at the First Presby
terian c';,th last night. He spoke on
the second commandment, taking his
text from Exodus, xx, 4-6:
Thou shalt not make unto thee any
graven Image, or any likeness of anything
that Is In heaven a'lovs or that la In tho
earth beneath, or tliut Is in the water un
der tho earth.
Thou shalt not bow down thyself to
them, nor serve them; for I the Lord thy
tiod am a Jealous God, visiting the Ini
quity of the fathers upon the children
unto the third and fourth generation of
them that hate me.
And showing mercy unto thousands of
them that love me and keep my command
ments. The reverend speaker said that some
very excellent people have greatly mis
understood the spirit of this command
ment. Continuing, the speuker said:
It Is both philosophically and historical
ly true that the use of Images In worship
has a tendency to dethrone God and to
degrade man. Hence the reason for this
commandment of the decalogue Is not at
all arbitrary; on the contrary, God gave
thla part of His moral law In order that
the purity as well as the spirituality of
His worship may be preserved. The form
of divine worship, as well as Its object. Is
of great Importance. We ought to make
note of this, for.. In these days and In this
land, religious worship has sssumed many
forms. The true worshipper Is one who
worships God In spirit and In truth, for the
Father seeketh such to worship Him.
A Fierce llattlo-Ground.
For. centuries the mode of divine wor
ship has been a fierce battle ground. It
has been the occasion of many a hot de
bats. Losing sight of the real object of
worship, men have fought about Its form.
I dare say that more books have been
written and more sermons have been
preached about forms of worship than any
one could read In a long lifetime. Is It not
true that the various evangelical churches
of today differ far more widely In respect
to their forms of worship than they do In
respect of their doctrlnlal beliefs?
Is It true that Calvanlsm and Armlnlan
Ism are wide apart In respect of some
quite Interesting but non-essential points
of doctrine? But these two systems of
doctrine1 do not differ as widely ss our
simple form of devotion differs from the
gsudy ceremonials- of extreme hlgh
Churchlsm. Even among Protestants,
there are many who seem to glory In their
forma of worship far more than they
lory In the fact and object of worship.
They forget that. " "Tta mad idolatry to
the asrvlct KTtaUr than the Ood."
Let It then bo afllrmed that the essen
tial fact In true worship Is. a heart lightly
affected toward God. Any form of wor
ship that interferes with the soul's ap
proach to God must be Injurious to one's
spiritual health. Such a form of religious
worship Is unscrlptural, and, therefore. It
must be un-Chrlstlnn and ought to be
avoided.
An Imago All .May Worship.
The worship of CmV. Do we all realize
what this tneuns? Do we all know what
It la to worship God In spirit and In truth?
We ctltlcise others, but how Is It with our
selves? Do we see God's image In the per
son and In the work of Jesus Christ? Our
Savior, Jesus Chi 1st, is the express Imae
of God's person, and this Is an Image we
all ought to worship. We.can never wor
ship Christ too frequently nor too de
voutly. Have we, In the past, given unto
Illm the homcge of our hearts, and has
He that homage now?
There Is a rich promlso and a rich r;
ward attached to thla commandment.
Those who love God and keep Hl3 com
mandments are precious In His sight. He
will show His mercy unto them from gen
eration to generation. Our God is a Jeal
ous God. He Is Jealous tor the honor of
His name and for the purity of His wor
ship. He knows that what men love the
most, that Is their pod.
He knows, too, thst we arc so consti
tuted that we are certain to become more
and more like unto the ohject of our wor
ship. The stream can never rise higher
thnn Its source, and If we worship any
ohject lower than God we are Idolaters.
We, therefore, o'lpht ta be Jealous for
God's honor and glory, and we ought ever
moro to worship Him with a sincere and
loving heart

BARONESS WAS DECEIVED.
Hut Sho Gots a Divorco from tho Bogus
Heir tn tho llawnilan Throne.
London, Nov. 3. The divorce case of
Wilcox agt. Wilcox, which has been
decided at Tunln, Italy, In favor of
tlho wife. Is considered of great Import
ance as M crea tes a precedent. Robert
WOJcox, the re.pondi'r.tt, U the Hawai
ian revolutionary leader, who was re
cently OTitenced to d.aiUh for Ills con
nection with the Royalist movement
against the Hawaiian re-public.
His new di'voreod wife Is the Bar
oness O'Ina Sobrera, who Is well-known
1n Italy undeir Uhe ipeuidonym of "Man
tea." She is o. brilliant writer and be
longs to a distinguished family of
Piedmont. Her mother was a member
of the princely family of Colonma dl
fttilsrllia.no. The Baronees met Wilcox In
Turin, whither he had been sent by
the government t( the Hawaiian Is
lands for the purpose of studying mili
tary tactics. iHe was a men of flno
presence and spent money freely.
He declared that he waa the heir to
the 'throne of liawia.ll, and In other
wa.ys deluded people into the belief
that he was a person of some import
ance. Tho baroness was deeply im
pressed by the morn and his stories, and
soon they be-came betrothed. The bar
oness obtained the consent of her fam
lly to the betrothal, and the wedding
14iat followed in due course was a
great society affair. Many magnlflclent
presents iwere received. Including one
that waa ostensibly sent by the king
of the Hawaiian Islands.
Some time after the wedding tvllcox
returned to Hawaii, accompanied by
his wife. Upon their arrival there tho
baroness was greatly surprised and
shocked to learn that her husband In
stead of being the heir to the throne,
was simply one of the many half
breeds of the Islands. She discovered
that he was the son of a white mnn, a
carpenter, by a Kanaka woman. When
Wilcox found that his duplicity had
been discovered he feared that his wife
would leave and denounce him. He
therefore kept 'her under lock and key
and ill treated her In other ways.
At the beginning of 1895 Wilcox tried
to foment a revolution against the re
public, was arrested, tried by court
martial and sentenced to death, which
sentence was subsequently commuted
to Imprisonment for thirty-five years.
The baroness, after a series of roman
tic adventures, succeeded In making
her way back to Italy, where proceed
ings were begun to bring about a disso
lution of the marriage.
The church readily gave its consent
to the divorce, as Wilcox was not a
Catholio and a dispensation had not
been asked for the marriage from
the religious authorities. Greater diffi
culty was met with In the civil courts,
as there Is no divorce law In Italy. The
Italian law only annuls marriages in
cases of mistaken Identity. The court
has now for the first time annulled a
marriage on the ground that one of the
parties to It Is a detriment to society,
and assumed titles and a position that
did not belong to him. .

PROSPECT OF GOOD TIES
Coal Trade Is Now in a Most I'ros
pcrcus Condition.
IT promises TO CONTINUE so
Delaware and Hudson Company I'nafcle
to Mlno as Much Coal as It Could
Market on Account of tho
Scarcity of Cars.
There is every indication that the
present prosperous condition of the
coal business will continue for at least
six months and possibly longer. . The
rush that is now on is in no wise the
result of buyers stocking up in a cheap
market, as was the case In some former
coul booms, for coal Is new anything
but cheap. It Is solely due to a scarc
ity verging on a famine of coal in the
hands of the dealers.
During the summer, when coal was
being sold In Hoboken as cheap as
it was being delivered to customers
here, the buyers believed that there
was a glut in the market and that the
very bottom would drop out of coal
prices. Relying on this belief they held
off until the last moment and when de
mands for coal began to come in they
found themselves without it and with
out a place to get it. Now they are
paying whatever the companies see fit
to ask and arc glad to get served at
any terms.
Neither the Delaware, Lackawanna
and western nor Delaware and Hud
son have any coal stored up at their
termini and very few of their connect
ing roads have as yet secured their
support for the winter. As a conse
quence coal Is being turned Into ashes.
It might be said, as soon as It leaves
the collieries. Only one connecting
road of the Delaware and Hudson has
anything like a supply of coal on hand.
Road That Wus In Luck.
This road, which serves two of the
New England states, was persuaded by
a Delaware and Hudson coal agent to
take a large shipment of coal during
the summer, the agent, by way of as
surance, promising to make good the
difference if coal could be bought on
Oct. IS cheaper than at that time. ThiB
particular railroad is now calling down
benedictions on the head of the san
guine coal agent. They have coal to
burn while their competitors cannot
begin to get their orders filled.
The Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western is getting by far tho best of
the boom, as the Delaware and Hudson
is doubly handicapped; first, by the
drying up of their canal, and secondly
by the scarcity of cars. Even though
the boats were able to run the company
would still be handicapped, as they are
pursuing the fair policy of giving all
their widely scattered customers a
t-hure of their output instead of selfish
ly selling to the hnndiest market.
In addition to this their connecting
roads ore making use of the Delaware
and Hudson cars, willingly paying the
rent and per diem penalty, while the
Delaware and Hudson road Is so situ
ated that they do not get a chance to
borrow, or, more emphatically speak
ing steal other companies' cars. It
Is not to be understood that the Dela
ware and Hudson does not own a sufll
clont number of cars to do their busi
ness, for this Is by no means true. The
company has a full equipment of roll
ing stock, but for the reason above
stated cannot enjoy the full use of It.
Will Contlnno tntll Next Juno.
J. George Elsele, of the Delaware and
Hudson shipping department, one of
the shrewdest and most far-sighted
coal men of the region. Is authority for
the prophecy that the present boom will
continue with scarcely any abatement
until at least June 1. During the early
summer Mr. Elsele prophesied the pres
ent rush so his forecast should bear
weight with tho miners.
The continuance of the boom In the
coal trade will be a good thing for busi
ness throughout this valley. Already
trade Is beginning to feel the Impetus
due to the Increased amount of money
being disbursed by the large mining
companies for tho work done during
October.
But for the scarcity of pig Iron, the
steel mills of tne city would be work
ing steadily day and night. As It Is
much time is lost because the
Lackawanna Iron and Steel company is
unable to secure an adequate supply of
pig iron or a grade to suit its purposes.
ONE RUNAWAY A GIRL.
A New York Lad aud His Sister Arrested
In a Woods In Philadelphia.
Philadelphia, Nov. 3. While patrol
ling his beat in the suburbs of this city
early this morning, Policeman Trainer
saw a glare In the woods. He entered
the woods and found what he supposed
to be two boys seated In front of a fire.
As they failed to give a satisfactory
account of themselves he placed them

tically useless for want of a hammer.
Lieutenant Snders secured some of his
daughter's clothing, wlilcn was given
